Description Thomas Koster 2007-03-07 13:52:01 UTC 
newer udev versions, specifically those that no longer provide /sbin/udev (at least >=udev-076), break all /sbin/rc prior to baselayout-1.12.5, resulting in spurious error from init that udev is "wanted but not available" and thus fails to start udevd at boot.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Boot with <baselayout-1.12.5 and >=udev-076.
Actual Results:  
/sbin/rc emits an ewarn that udev was "wanted but not available":

You wanted udev but support for it was not available!
Please review your system after it's booted!

Expected Results:  
udevd start

As /sbin/udev disappeared after udev-103, it should be enough to change these versions, correct?
Comment 2 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-03-07 22:56:08 UTC 
Yeah, definitely not 076...

> Yeah, definitely not 076...

Sorry, I didn't know exactly which version removed /sbin/udev (I'm not a udev expert), and I found an entry in a debian udev changelog that /sbin/udev didn't exist anymore in 076.  I guess I read it wrong.
Comment 4 Matthias Schwarzott gentoo-dev 2007-03-08 13:30:45 UTC 
Fixed the relevant ebuilds (>udev-103) to depend on baselayout-1.12.5.
Thanks for reporting that issue.
